What Kind of Reader are You?

I've shamelessly swiped this quiz from the Well Dressed Librarian, who in turn borrowed it from the Tiny Little Librarian. All these librarians with blogs... who's looking after the books?

But seriously, it's a fun quiz, and I feel remarkably satisfied with my top ranking of "Literate Good Citizen" with an "Obsessive Compulsive Bookworm" chaser. Nothing too fancy for me. I'm more than happy to leave the book snobbery to those with the passion to do it properly.

I rated almost identically. The one question, though, about being caught in a line - I don't pull out a book anymore. I usually have knitting with me!

Literate Good Citizen here.

More of a Book Snob than a Fad reader. I guess I got that from my big brother. Or are you more the obsessive-compulsive type?

I've started to hold out some vague hope for the next presidential elections. At least, unlike the last time, it looks like I'll have enough choices to make voting in the Democratic primary worth my while. Last time I was so non-plussed with my choices for Democratic nominee that I voted in the Republican primary just so I could have the pleasure of voting against Dubya twice in the same year (which had the unfortunate side effect of putting me on the Republican mailing list. Although I've often entertained the idea of showing up at some of the party events I get invites to just to blow their minds). Don't get me wrong, I like John Kerry just fine. I just think it's an indication of how badly people wanted to get rid of Bush even in 2004 that Kerry did as well as he did. Speaking as a fellow tall, funny-looking egghead, he just wasn't electable. So at this point it looks like it will be Obama vs. Clinton for the Democratic nomination (although lord knows ...

I hate daylight savings time. I really do. Maybe it's a silly thing to hate, but it has always seemed utterly pointless to me. And now the additional monkeying around we're doing with this already absurd device is making it even more pointless. IT departments all over the country are having to scramble to reprogram all the automatic clock settings on all the computers everywhere. At my own work, after the patches were applied we all had to go into our calendars and manually move all of the appointments from March 11th through April 8th one hour earlier, since the patch advanced all the times that were already in the system. This has got to be costing millions nationwide. And for what? Apparently the goal is to get a jump on the amount of time people are using lights and thereby save energy costs. Putting aside the fact that with a stroke of the pen congress could mandate 45 mpg minimums for vehicles and thereby save a heck of a lot more energy, how much are we really sav...
